my friend has a brand new 07 shelby gt 500. basterd got it less then a week after i got my cobalt.

 

bastard... Theres always that one guy who has to do better than you and make it known... When I got my ss/sc, like 2weeks later my co worker got a mopar SRT4

 

yeah get that **** all the time until you take em out and smoke em and shut em the **** up.....i hate mustangs there overated....and there nothing to brag bout

 

Not to mention the Rustangs awful handling, and how sloppy the steering is (07 GT).

 

its normally money issues for us not getting the SS/SC. i know i wish i had one every single day (as my friend in the SS/SC burns past me)

 

this is my friends car


i would have to spend a **** load to smoke him... but on the other hand he spent an ungodly amount of money on it.

 

 

yeah my friend has a cavilier z24 and he rants about how sweet his car is and how much cooler his are. I have a 2.2 manual and he has the manula 2.4 and i smoke him 24/7. he did a few mods and claims its so much faster. i can't wait until i drop a new stage 2 clutch in mine and blow by him some more! but yeah i hate ppl who talk **** about cobalts. i have another friend with an eclipse 2.4 and he barely keeps up with me, and he used to talk so much ****..."Its a chick car" "Its just a cobalt" lmao...i see more girls driving cavy's n eclipses than cobalts.

 

i get alot of people thinking my car is a supercharged...i pulled into the canadian tire parking lot in my buddies mustang..(v6 auto coupe rofls) and his buddy in a probe gt was like..dude lets race..ill get my ass kicked but itll be fun, so me in the passenger seat ask him, can your probe beat a cobalt? and hes like haha yeah i smoke cobalts all the time! so i say, ok i got a 100 bucks that says different, he starts to laugh and before he says deal his buddy chirps in and says "Ask him if its a SS" so he asks me and i smile and nod my head, and hes like..ohh **** i annt racing that, those are supercharged and will kick my ass...that is when we decided that these pot smoking druggies wernt worth our time so we drove off.

moral of the story is, in a 2.4 i get mixed reviews, i get people who wants to race me in cleary slower cars, who think im a base cobalt (debaddged rear) and people who cleary wont race me in cars that are substantial to my car but think that b/c i dont have the wing im a base cobalt..GRR it makes me mad some times....i got wing envy

 

Number one conversation I have in the 2.4 -

"Why doesn't it have the big wing?"

Because it's an SS, not an SS Supercharged.

"Oh, I thought the SS stood for supercharged."

No, it stands for Super Sport - have a nice day...

 

I always get the opsite, "hey is that the supercharge one?".

 

That's because you're RED and red cars are FAST .

 

I tend to get this scenario with my SS/NA.

I can't get ANYONE in a honda, Toyota, Hyundai, mustang v6, or any other variation of riced out piece of crap to even look at me on the road. They just pretend like they don't see me and drive REALLY cautiously until I'm too far away.
But I get the Mustang GTs, 350z's, Audi's, and any variation of performance car that costs more than $30k that constantly pull up to me to scope me out.
It's kinda not fair

 

That's because of our sexy euro-styled body lines .

 

Heres a good one. Was just at sheetz (gas station) and saw a very nice silver ss/sc parked with two kids looking at my lil 2.4. I was paying for my grub and saw that they parked next to my balt checking it out. I went out the opposite door so I could do a sneak attack from the side. I heard the driver say "yeah but why does it have that wing?" I walked up to my door and gave them a hey nice car. They said nothing....crickets....kinda awkward and not very nice I might add. But then again I did startle them. The deer in headlights stare they had was kinda funny. Anyway, I got the impression that they thought it was a SS/SC. So maybe even some ss/sc owners have a bit of trouble at times. I feel your pain SS/SC owners..I would get annoyed too with everyone mixing the trims up. I didn't get my 2.4 to be a pretender. It was the best fit for me and the twins I have coming into this world. I wanted to avoid the 4 door SUV thing and stay sporty. What I got was every civic, wrx, mustang etc.. wanting to "go". I just might have to resort to those cheesy yellow baby on board suction cup things
